246 DRIVING AND OPERATING
Caution (Continued)
.Do not tow a trailer during
break-in. SeeTrailer Towing 0340
for the trailer towing capabilities
of the vehicle and more
information.
Following break-in, engine speed
and load can be gradually
increased.
On new vehicles, the various
mechanical and electrical systems
experience a “break-in”period during
the first 6 400 km (4,000 mi) of
routine driving. As the vehicle is
driven, the mechanical systems adjust
to provide optimal fuel economy and
transmission shift performance.
Electrical systems will adapt and
calibrate during the break-in period.
A one-time occurrence of clicks and
similar vehicle noises is normal during
this process.
Normal driving charges the vehicle’s
battery to achieve the best operation
of the vehicle, including fuel economy
and the Stop/Start System. See Stop/
Start System 0249.
Ignition Positions
Vehicles equipped with Keyless Access
have pushbutton starting.
The Remote Key must be in the
vehicle for the system to operate.
If the pushbutton start is not working,
the vehicle may be near a strong radio
antenna signal causing interference to
the Keyless Access system. See Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) System Operation
0 7.
To shift out of P (Park), the ignition
must be on or in Service Mode, and
the brake pedal must be applied.
{Warning
Turning off the vehicle while
moving may cause loss of power
assist in the brake and steering
systems and disable the airbags.
While driving, only shut the vehicle
off in an emergency.
Stopping the Engine/LOCK/OFF (No
Indicator Lights) : When the vehicle
is stopped, press ENGINE START/
STOP once to turn the engine off.
If the vehicle is in P (Park), the
ignition will turn off, and Retained
Accessory Power (RAP) will remain
active. See Retained Accessory Power
(RAP) 0250.
If the vehicle is not in P (Park),
the ignition will return to
ACC/ACCESSORY and display the
message SHIFT TO PARK in the Driver
Information Center (DIC). When the
vehicle is shifted into P (Park), the
ignition system will turn off.
The vehicle may have an electric
steering column lock. The lock is
activated when the ignition is turned
off and either front door is opened.

remain active. Otherwise, the vehicle
will start in Tour mode. Tow/Haul
mode turns on trailer sway control.
If equipped with a diesel engine,
exhaust braking is automatically
activated when Tow/Haul mode is
selected. The system will command
down shifts to reduce vehicle speed
when the brake is applied. The normal
tow/haul shift pattern will return once
the vehicle is on a low grade or when
the accelerator pedal is pressed. While
in the Electronic Range Select (ERS)
Mode (seeManual Mode 0256), grade
braking is deactivated, allowing the
driver to select a range, and limiting
the highest gear available.
For more information on trailer
weight specifications, see Towing
Equipment 0344.
gTerrain Mode : Use this mode
when traveling on very rough roads at
very low speeds, such as a two-track
or heavily rutted road. This mode can
also be used for pulling a boat out of
the water on a trailer. When in Terrain
mode, the vehicle shifts automatically,
but will hold a lower gear longer to
maximize engine torque. This mode has a unique pedal map and
transmission shift pattern for better
control at lower speeds and over
rough terrain. This mode modifies
accelerator pedal mapping,
transmission shift pattern, ride height,
and Electronic Limited-Slip
Differential (eSLD).
When the vehicle comes to a stop on
an upward grade, automatic vehicle
hold is engaged until the driver
presses the accelerator pedal. Stop/
Start and cruise control are disabled
in Terrain mode.
Active Braking during lift throttle will
be engaged. This feature automatically
applies light braking to simulate
heavy engine braking of
four-wheel-drive low. It also applies
light braking in D (Drive) until the
vehicle is at idle speeds. In L1 and L2
light braking will typically bring the
vehicle to a stop. Active Braking
during lift throttle also reduces trailer
braking.
Terrain mode automatically exits to
Tour mode if the brake temperatures
become too hot, electronic parking
brake becomes inoperable, or the
vehicle cannot perform braking or
vehicle hold.
For more information on off-road
driving, see
Off-Road Driving 0235 and
Hill and Mountain Roads 0239.

276 DRIVING AND OPERATING
ACC works like regular cruise control.
ACC uses camera and radar sensors.
SeeRadio Frequency Statement 0481.
If a vehicle is detected in your path,
ACC can speed up the vehicle or apply
limited, moderate braking to maintain
the selected following gap. To
disengage ACC, apply the brake. If the
Traction Control System (TCS) or
StabiliTrak/Electronic Stability Control
(ESC) activates while ACC is engaged,
ACC may automatically disengage. See
Traction Control/Electronic Stability
Control 0265. When road conditions
allow ACC to be safely used, ACC can
be turned back on.
Disabling the TCS or StabiliTrak/ESC
system will disengage and prevent
engagement of ACC.
ACC can reduce the need for you to
frequently brake and accelerate,
especially when used on expressways,
freeways, and interstate highways.
When used on other roads, you may
need to take over the control of
braking or acceleration more often.{Warning
ACC has limited braking ability and
may not have time to slow the
vehicle down enough to avoid a
collision with another vehicle you
are following. This can occur when
vehicles suddenly slow or stop
ahead, or enter your lane. Also see
“Alerting the Driver” later in this
section. Complete attention is
always required while driving and
you should be ready to take action
and apply the brakes. See Defensive
Driving 0232.
{Warning
ACC will not detect or brake for
children, pedestrians, animals,
or other objects.
Do not use ACC when:
.On winding and hilly roads or
when the sensors are blocked by
snow, ice, or dirt. The system
may not detect a vehicle ahead.
Keep the entire front of the
vehicle clean.
.Visibility is poor due to rain,
snow, fog, dirt, insect residue,
or dust; when other foreign
objects obscure the camera and/
or radar; or when the vehicle in
front or oncoming traffic causes
additional environmental
obstructions, such as road spray.
ACC performance is limited
under these conditions.
.On slippery roads where fast
changes in tire traction can
cause excessive wheel slip.

.Work if the area surrounding the
detection sensor is damaged or
not properly repaired.
Complete attention is always
required while driving, and you
should be ready to take action and
apply the brakes and/or steer the
vehicle to avoid crashes.
Audible or Safety Alert Seat
Some driver assistance features alert
the driver of obstacles by beeping. To
change the volume of the warning
chime, see “Comfort and Convenience ”
under Vehicle Personalization 0140.
If equipped with the Safety Alert Seat,
the driver seat cushion may provide a
vibrating pulse alert instead of
beeping. To change this, see
“Collision/Detection Systems” under
Vehicle Personalization 0140.
Cleaning
Depending on vehicle options, keep
these areas of the vehicle clean to
ensure the best driver assistance
feature performance. Driver Information Center (DIC) messages
may display when the systems are
unavailable or blocked.

Return the tires to the recommended
cold tire inflation pressure when
high-speed driving has ended. See
Vehicle Load Limits 0241 and
Tire Pressure 0409.
Tire Pressure Monitor
System
The Tire Pressure Monitor System
(TPMS) uses radio and sensor
technology to check tire pressure
levels. The TPMS sensors monitor the
air pressure in your tires and transmit
tire pressure readings to a receiver
located in the vehicle.
Each tire, including the spare (if
provided), should be checked monthly
when cold and inflated to the
inflation pressure recommended by
the vehicle manufacturer on the
vehicle placard or tire inflation
pressure label. (If your vehicle has
tires of a different size than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire
inflation pressure label, you should
determine the proper tire inflation
pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your
vehicle has been equipped with a tire
pressure monitoring system (TPMS)
that illuminates a low tire pressure
telltale when one or more of your tires
is significantly under-inflated.
Accordingly, when the low tire
pressure telltale illuminates, you
should stop and check your tires as
soon as possible, and inflate them to
the proper pressure. Driving on a
significantly under-inflated tire causes
the tire to overheat and can lead to
tire failure. Under-inflation also
reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread
life, and may affect the vehicle's
handling and stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a
substitute for proper tire maintenance,
and it is the driver's responsibility to
maintain correct tire pressure, even if
under-inflation has not reached the
level to trigger illumination of the
TPMS low tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped
with a TPMS malfunction indicator to
indicate when the system is not
operating properly. The TPMS
malfunction indicator is combined
with the low tire pressure telltale.
When the system detects a
malfunction, the telltale will flash for
approximately one minute and then
remain continuously illuminated. This
sequence will continue upon
subsequent vehicle start-ups as long
as the malfunction exists.
When the malfunction indicator is
illuminated, the system may not be
able to detect or signal low tire

pressure as intended. TPMS
malfunctions may occur for a variety
of reasons, including the installation
of replacement or alternate tires or
wheels on the vehicle that prevent the
TPMS from functioning properly.
Always check the TPMS malfunction
telltale after replacing one or more
tires or wheels on your vehicle to
ensure that the replacement or
alternate tires and wheels allow the
TPMS to continue to function
properly.
SeeTire Pressure Monitor Operation
0 412.
See Radio Frequency Statement 0481.
Tire Pressure Monitor
Operation
This vehicle may have a Tire Pressure
Monitor System (TPMS). The TPMS is
designed to warn the driver when a
low tire pressure condition exists.
TPMS sensors are mounted onto each
tire and wheel assembly, excluding the
spare tire and wheel assembly. The
TPMS sensors monitor the air pressure in the tires and transmit the
tire pressure readings to a receiver
located in the vehicle.
When a low tire pressure condition is
detected, the TPMS illuminates the
low tire pressure warning light located
on the instrument cluster. If the
warning light comes on, stop as soon
as possible and inflate the tires to the
recommended pressure shown on the
Tire and Loading Information label.
See
Vehicle Load Limits 0241.
A message to check the pressure in a
specific tire displays in the Driver
Information Center (DIC). The low tire
pressure warning light and the DIC
warning message come on at each
ignition cycle until the tires are
inflated to the correct inflation
pressure. If the vehicle has DIC
buttons, tire pressure levels can be
viewed. For additional information and details about the DIC operation
and displays, see
Driver Information
Center (DIC) 0133.
The low tire pressure warning light
may come on in cool weather when
the vehicle is first started, and then
turn off as the vehicle is driven. This
could be an early indicator that the air
pressure is getting low and needs to
be inflated to the proper pressure.
A Tire and Loading Information label
shows the size of the original
equipment tires and the correct
inflation pressure for the tires when
they are cold. See Vehicle Load Limits
0 241, for an example of the Tire and
Loading Information label and its
location. Also see Tire Pressure0409.
The TPMS can warn about a low tire
pressure condition but it does not
replace normal tire maintenance. See
Tire Inspection 0416, Tire Rotation
0 417 and
Tires 0402.
